<mods:abstract>A flyer from Troy, NY when the Springfield College men's gymnastics team traveled for an exhibition, ca. February 25, 1939. The flyer has pictures of gymnasts surrounding the outside of the page. There are gymnasts appearing to be apart of a tug-of-war at the top of the page, gymnasts doing a balancing act at the bottom of the page, and gymnasts performing with large rings. The flyer includes the time the doors open for the event, the time that the event starts, and how much the event costs. The history of Gymnastics at Springfield College goes all the way back till nearly the founding of Springfield College in 1885, when Dr. James Naismith, the creator of Basketball, was an early SC Gymnast. Beginning in 1904, the SC Gymnastics team would travel to cities to perform their Gymnastics routines. At the end of their travels, they would perform a “Home Show” at Springfield College, a show they continue to perform to this day. It was during the reign of head coach Leslie Judd, widely considered a father of modern Gymnastics, that the Gymnastics exhibition team really gained a claim to fame. Under the leadership of Professor Leslie J. Judd, the purpose of the Springfield College Exhibition team was to promote and maintain an interest in gymnastics, dance, and the artistic phases of physical education in schools, colleges, YMCAs, and recreational centers. The Exhibition Team has appeared before thousands of spectators in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. In fact, in 1941 the team appeared before thirty-five-thousand spectators in twenty-five cities.</mods:abstract>
